Gao Hong and Issam Rafea last performed live in the Twin Cites on March 8, 2020. During the next 18 months of concert cancelations they kept busy by being awarded two gold medals by the Global Music Awards for their newest CD, “From Our World to Yours”. They were also chosen by indie rocker Phoebe Bridgers to appear on a Tiny Desk Top Shelf Competition episode as a finalist from a pool of over 3000 entries. And to top it all off, their new CD was picked as a Top 10 Album From Around the World by Songlines in the U.K. where reviewer Charlie Cawood wrote “The chemistry between Gao Hong and Issam Rafea is never less than impeccable, and this recording serves as the next instalment in a fascinating ongoing conversation.”  Now, on October 10, they will finally hold their “From Our World to Yours” CD release concert live at The Cedar!
